Christmas or New Years entertain
ments, hut we learn that the children
OF most of the schools are to be treated
to gifts in a quiet way on Sunday
(Christmas day.
The slow progress made in the
renovation of our town hall almost IN
duced us to think that onr school board
was obliged to cut the coat according to
the cloth. However. the painters ana
and paper hangers got to work at last
and are now putting the finishing
touches to the JOB.
WIN II. Fisher the photographer,
wishes to give special notice that he
will only renal: at Millheim three
weeks longer ard invites the public
wanting pictures taken 10 call at his
gallery on North street, where he
guarantees satisfactory work ut low
prices. II

spend few days among friends In
Aaronsburg and Biushvalley. He gave
this Office call to see that he in square
and more than square on our DOCKS
and We, Of course, were glad TO shake
Willis hand.
The rumor is now atioat that editor
J. y. Fielder, OF the Bellefonte Gazette,
has legislative aspira,io ions. Since the
Republican party is on top of the pile
in this county, the republican timber
will not permit any opportunities to
slip by them that may carry them into
office. Ii remains 10 be seen if Feldler s
pole is long enough TO knock down the
per-simmon.
